A festival atmosphere, fancy dress, free kai, giveaways and games sweetened the deal for Northlanders taking part in Super Saturday — a day-long effort at 42 vaccination sites
to boost the region's defence against Covid-19. By 9pm just under 5000 doses had been delivered, smashing the region's target of 3900. Michael Cunningham and Peter de Graaf captured the action in Whangārei, Moerewa, Ohaeawai and Kerikeri.
